SHAMEFUL ABUSE
-
Heaped Upon Noted Englishman for
His Open Honesty.

WIN. ED. ROBSON, NJ. D., L. R. G. s.
l., M. K. @. G. P. l., late of the Royal
Navy, of England, has got into profes-
sional trouble for writing the following
open letter to the editor of the London
Family Doctor:
81 believe it to be the duty Of every
physician to make known any means or
remedy whereby sickness can be pre-
vented, and it is for this purpose write
to give my experience both here and
abroad. I ask the publication of the
statement that people may be warned be-
fore it is too late, to say to them that
there is at hand means by which they
may be restored to perfect health. 1t is
well known to the medical world, and in
deed to the laity, that certain disease
is making terrible havoc that next to
consumption it is the most fatal, and
that when fully developed there is moth
ing to be done for the sufferer"
Physicians and scientists have long
been trying to throw light upon the cause,
and if possible, find in nature medicine
for this fatal malady. They have shown,
absolutely, that the blood-purifying or
gans of vital Importance, are the kidneys,
and that when they once fail, the poison
which they should take out of the blood
is carried by the blood into every part of
the body, developing disease"
&c In my hospital practice in England,
India and South America, and also while
surgeon in the Royal Navy of Great
Britain, gave great deal of attention
to the study of diseases of the kidneys
and urinary organs, and fourd that not
only was the cure of chronic Bright's
Disease hopeless, but that kidney dis
ease was remarkably prevalent; much
more SO than generally known, and was
| the cause of the majority of cases of sick
ness, and further, that the medical pro-
| fession has no remedy which exerts any
| absolute control over these organs in
| disease"
"Some time ago when had case
which resisted all regular treatment

neys, much against my will | permitted
my patient to use Warmers safe cure, OF

half of the deaths which occur in Englan
are caused, primarily, by impaired actiol
of the kidneys, and the consequent re
